Hey folks,
Here’s a quick one, from a few mornings back. Mount Blackburn, from across the Root Glacier and the Donoho Basin. Really cold.
The mountain’s been out pretty often, which means clear sunny skies, which means – wear your long underwear. I’m still getting used to allowing myself an extra 30 minutes to get dressed to go outside to take photos.
Cheers
Carl
Hey Folks,
Fireweed mountain, near McCarthy.
Just a quick note to say all’s well, happy holidays to you and yours, and stay warm.
A week of minus 30˚Fahrenheit weather here lately! This was from one my first afternoons out, a couple of weeks ago.
Happy holidays, and all the best to everyone for the new year.
Cheers
Carl
Hey Folks,
Owls rock!
Here’s a Northern Hawk Owl (Surnia ulula) taking flight from its perch on the top of a white spruce tree. These owls seem to be much more tolerant of my presence than their larger cousins, the Great Horned Owl. They’re also much more active during the daytime. Northern Hawk Owls tend to live in the boreal forests of the north, but do move south in leaner years when food is scarce. This year it looks like a bumper year for owls up here, so I doubt many of them will head south. Hopefully, that means I’ll get some photos. 
Cheers
Carl
Hey Folks,
Here’s a 3-toed woodpecker (three-toed woodpecker - Picoides dorsalis) from Wrangell – St. Elias National Park.
Welcome back, albeit briefly. I’m going to spend the next couple of months recharging a bit, and breaking from the net and blogging and writing and reading and blah, blah, blah. A little quiet time will do me good, I think. Hopefully during that time I’ll pick up some new images and also try to come up with some ideas to write about that will make the blog a little more interesting. We’ll see how that goes.
I’ll try to make a post or 2 along the way. In the meantime, you folks be careful out there.
Cheers
Carl
